Abstract

Disclosed is an active DTV amplifier for amplifying signals and detecting and displaying the intensity of signals of an antenna. The amplifier is connected between the antenna and a coaxial cable and includes a primary signal amplification circuit connected to the antenna for performing a primary amplification of a captured antenna signal, a secondary signal amplification circuit connected to the coaxial cable for performing a secondary amplification of the antenna signal and outputting the amplified signal to a feeder coaxial cable, a signal shunt circuit for splitting and the antenna signal processed by the primary amplification into two and assigning the split signals to the single detection circuit and the secondary signal amplification circuit, and a single detection circuit connected to a microcontroller for feeding the collected antenna signal back to the microcontroller which is connected to a display screen to instantly display the intensity of the signal.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, and more particularly to an active DTV amplifier with signal detection and display functions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] In the operating principle of a conventional active DTV antenna, an antenna vibrator is provided for receiving weak electromagnetic waves (including useful signals and interference signals) in the air, and sending the electromagnetic waves to a low noise amplifier (LNA) through a coaxial cable to perform a basic signal amplification. In this process, the present existing design is unable to detect the intensity of a signal or visually observe the signal.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0003] In view of the aforementioned drawbacks of the conventional signal amplifier, the present invention provides an active DTV amplifier with signal detection and display functions, and the active DTV amplifier is provided for amplifying a signal and detecting the intensity of the signa...
